For  Whom  Intended. — These  courses  are  prepared  for  farmers, 
farm  managers,  suburban  dwellers  cultivating  the  land,  prospective 
settlers,  and  others  desiring  specific  and  detailed  information  on  the 
production  of  farm  crops  and  animals  and  on  the  conditions  of  suc- 
cessful agriculture  in  California.  It  is  not  intended  merely  to  send 
out  reading  matter  on  a  certain  subject  but  rather  to  furnish  infor- 
mation which  students  will  study  until  they  understand  it  thoroughly, 
as  indicated  by  the  answers  to  the  questions.  Through  this  personal 
relation  with  the  students  it  is  hoped  to  make  the  information  in  the 
courses  more  useful. 

It  is  obviously  impossible  to  cover  in  the  lessons  fully  the  local 
conditions  in  the  different  sections  of  the  state  with  regard  to  a  given 
industry.  However,  students  are  invited  to  ask  questions  regarding 
local  or  community  problems  and  on  any  points  in  the  lessons  or  with 
regard  to  the  subject  studied  which  are  not  clear  to  them.  These 
questions  will  be  answered  as  helpfully  as  possible  by  specialists  of 
the  University. 

By  WJiom  Prepared. — The  courses  are  prepared  by  specialists  in 
the  faculty  of  the  College  of  Agriculture  with  reference  to  agricultural 
conditions  in  California.  The  methods  discussed  may  readily  be 
adapted  to  any  section  of  the  state. 

How  to  Enroll. — Any  person  desiring  to  enroll  as  a  student  in 
one  of  the  Correspondence  Courses  should  fill  out  the  application  card, 
which  is  enclosed  in  this  circular  or  which  will  be  sent  on  request. 
Students  may  enroll  for  only  one  course  at  a  time.  After  filling  out 
the  blank,  mail  it  to  the  Division  of  Agricultural  Education,  Uni- 
versity OP  California,  Berkeley,  Cal. 

Expenses. — No  charges  are  made  for  the  agricultural  correspond- 
ence courses  and  no  University  credit  is  given  for  them.  All  that 
the  University  asks  is  that  the  work  be  taken  up  in  earnestness  and 
that  the  student  pursue  it  with  diligence  so  that  he  may  receive  the 
greatest  benefit  from  it.  After  a  student  has  enrolled  in  one  course, 
he  is  expeced  to  complete  it  before  enrolling  in  another.  If  the  student 
wishes  to  change  from  one  course  to  another,  he  may  do  so  by  paying 
a  fee  of  one  dollar  ($1)  for  each  course  commenced  until  the  course 
from  which  he  transferred  is  completed.  In  such  cases  money  order 
or  check  should  be  made  payable  to  the  Regents  of  the  University 
OP  California,  and  sent  to  the  Division  of  Agricultural  Education, 
University  of  Californlv,  Berkeley,  Cal.,  stating  the  change  in  reg- 
istration desired. 

Sending  Out  Lessons. — Upon  receipt  of  an  application  card  prop- 
erly filled  out  the  student  wiU  be  given  a  file  number,  which  will  be 


LLC 


used  in  keeping  records  of  the  work.     The  first  two  lessons  of  the 
course  will  be  sent  to  the  student  with  questions  on  each  lesson. 

Preparing  and  Returnmg  Answers. — Each  student  should  care- 
fully study  the  first  lesson  until  all  points  are  thoroughly  understood. 
When  he  is  able  to  answer  all  of  the  questions  at  the  end  of  the  lesson, 
he  should  lay  aside  the  text  and  write  out  the  answers  in  his  own 
words,  numbering  the  answers  to  correspond  with  the  questions  asked. 
The  Division  of  Agricultural  Education  is  ready  at  all  times  to  aid 
students  in  answering  questions  not  well  understood. 

Answers  to  questions  should  be  carefully  and  clearly  written  out 
in  ink  or  typed  on  paper  about  the  size  of  that  on  which  the  lessons 
are  written.  As  far  as  possible  write  only  on  one  side  of  the  paper. 
Special  questions  enclosed  with  the  answers  should  be  on  a  separate 
sheet  of  paper.  Mail  the  answers  to  Lesson  1  and  start  work  on 
Lesson  2. 

Correction  of  Answers. — Lesson  3  will  be  mailed  after  receipt  of 
answers  to  Lesson  1,  with  corrections  of  the  same.  On  receipt  of 
answers  to  questions  on  Lesson  2,  a  fourth  lesson  will  be  sent,  and  so 
on  until  the  end  of  the  course,  the  student  being  constantly  supplied 
with  a  lesson  to  be  studied. 

Certificate  of  Completion. — When  the  student  has  satisfactorily 
completed  the  course,  a  card  so  stating  will  be  sent. 

Special  Requests. — In  case  the  student  lives  at  such  a  distance  or 
under  conditions  that  prevent  receiving  the  lessons  as  rapidly  as 
needed,  more  than  one  lesson  will  be  sent  if  requested  by  the  student. 
But  in  no  case  will  several  lessons  be  sent  at  one  time  if  the  student 
does  not  show  a  willingness  to  answer  promptly. 

The  lessons  are  sent  out  in  an  order  that  is  designed  to  make  the 
subject  matter  easily  understood.  At  times,  however,  students  may 
want  certain  information  before  it  is  reached  in  the  course.  In  such 
a  case  the  needed  lesson  will  be  advanced  if  the  conditions  seem  to 
justify  it. 

References. — No  text  books  are  required  with  any  of  the  courses. 
Various  references  are  listed  in  the  courses  for  the  benefit  of  students 
wishing  to  read  further  on  a  particular  subject.  The  State  Librarian 
and  many  county  and  city  librarians  have  signified  their  desire  to 
assist  in  promoting  the  work  of  the  correspondence  courses  and  aiding 
students  in  taking  the  work.  Where  a  book  or  reference  is  not  found 
in  the  local  library,  it  will  frequently  be  possible  for  the  librarian  to 
secure  its  loan  from  another  library. 

Free  bulletins  and  circulars  of  the  United  States  Department  of 
Agriculture   and   State   Agricultural   Experiment   Stations  may  be 


secured  by  writing  to  the  department  or  the  state  concerned.     For 
addresses  see  page  16. 

Organization  and  Classes. — While  the  courses  are  intended  for 
individual  students,  various  organizations  of  adults,  as  well  as  of 
boys'  and  girls'  classes  in  grammar  and  high  school,  may  prefer  to 
discuss  the  courses  together.  Such  study  classes  are  often  quite  help- 
ful, but  in  all  cases  the  students  enrolling  are  held  responsible  indi- 
vidually for  the  completion  of  the  course.  Teachers  having  their 
students  enroll  for  courses  are  requested  to  encourage  completion  of 
all  work  taken  up.  All  members  of  study  groups  should  understand 
that  the  studying  and  answering  of  the  lessons  is  an  individual  re- 
sponsibility and  that  the  work  can  be  continued  separately  from  any 
class  formed.
